    Oh, wow. #Homeopathy doesn't affect bacterial growth but the homeopath doing the study says it works anyway through "host effects." 😂🤦‍♂️https://twitter.com/jensbehnkeen/status/1014069933154750466 …

    New in vitro-experiment on #homeopathy didn't detect any direct inhibitory effect of highly potentized substances on the growth of E. coli. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/323961482_In_Vitro_Effects_of_Homeopathic_Drugs_on_Cultured_Escherichia_coli … pic.twitter.com/A6ScptLyRF

        In the 21st century how can there still be such a thing as a homeopathy journal?

        "Recently, a direct bactericidal effect of homeopathic remedies was shown." And then concludes with it does not have a direct effect. Having your sugar pill and eat it?

        Interesting. Remedies might work on candida but not on E. coli, some substances might work others don't. But first of all: Independent replication! Personally I believe direct antimicrobial or anitfungal effects are unlikely to occur with potencies. But evidence is evidence...

        'Host effects' is what I'm calling every bad thing I want to do that doesn't work but I feel like doing anyway from now on. #thankyouhomeopathy
